WARNING, SPOILER ALERT!
Now let me put some quotes first (I read the Doubleday's hardcover edition):
Chapter 1 page 7
" The fifty-eight-year-old philantropist, historian, and scientist had taken Langdon under his wing nearly thirty years ago, in many ways filling the void left by Langdon's father's death."
Chapter 3 page 13
"His physique was not quite what it had been in his college days as a water-polo all-American, but he was still lean and toned, respectable for a man in his forties."
Chapter 3 page 14
" Peter Solomon had been a friend, mentor, and, although only twelve years Langdon's senior, a father figure to him ever since their firts meeting at Princeton University. As a sophomore, Langdon had been required to attend an evening guest lecture by the well-known young historian and philantropist."
= = = = = = = = =
Now you see, if Peter Solomon was twelve years older than Robert Langdon, that made Langdon forty-six-years-old.
They first met around thirty years ago, let's say for the sake of making it simpler, it was twenty-eight-years ago. That means that Solomon was thirty-years-old and Langdon a mere sixteen -- and Langdon was already in sophomore years!
Well, does Mr. Brown tried to make a point that Langdon is a genius (or at the very least, advanced academically?)
